Note that not all sociopaths are serial killers. There are many sociopaths among us in the professional world.

Yes I have and it almost brought me to the brink of ruin before I fianally snapped out of it.
I knew from early on things were not quite right, but on into it I went with the naive belief things would change. I remember early on mentioning to my Mother the uneasy feelings I was having about her and she told me "Get rid of her...she's going to drain you". I did not heed, and drain me she did. In the end, however I saw to it that she got just what she deserved; NOTHING. ended up in a homeless shelter last I heard.

Emm, a lot of closet psychology conclusions on this thread about what is a sociopath. I would say many of the traits discussed are valid symptomology, but however you cannot judge someones mental state based on one or two simple behaviors alone. There are many cross over behavioral signs between different mental disorders.

A few myths on sociopaths is that they are violent, hurt animals, etc. Sociopaths that do engage in this behavior at an early age are simply trying to understand what emotion and feeling is. Unfortunately many of them carry over this experimental mindset and practice into adult years. They get great satisfaction out of manipulating and controling other peoples lives. They may even be protective and guarded over those individuals, until the other person challenges the sociopaths hold over them and then things go badly. The bulk of sociopaths do not like their structured view of the world challenged in any way. An unwillingness to debate things is sometimes a cautionary red flag. Combine this with a willingness to take authority over others quickly and you are looking at a probable case. This incidently is a comfort zone for sociopaths, hence why many try to establish themselves in positions of power.

While psychopaths and sadists tend to take pleasure from harming people, sociopaths (other then those that do harm as a "hobby") generally do not display openly aggressive behaviors. As another poster said it is when sociopathic patterns emerge in combination with narcassism (on the rise in our society for whatever reason -- imoral environment increase perhaps?) and when combined with sadism that tend to be the outwardly obvious ones.

I had the misfortune of having a relationship with a sociopath once who unknowningly was prone to fits of madness. That was not a pleasant few months. I am an experienced counselor, and even I have been fooled on occasion. That being the key issue. Sociopaths tend to be masters of deception. Don't think a "feeling" or a behavior alone is marker. Most sociopaths are very moral even when they not know what guilt is. Many are very protective of their mental illness because they know it often brings them grief in life when others find out about them -- especially the secretly sadistic ones.

It all comes down to instinct really when dealing with some dangerous people -- but instinct has a lot to do with physical and emotional cues. Sociopaths are often well aware of this, and never display such failings. In fact the majority of sociopaths will appear "too perfect", which is a more common tell then any other. Humans being stupid and gullible as they are tend to gravitate towards individuals who seem "perfect" (women in particular seem foolish this way -- false idolizing) as trusted friends and advisors, and that is what true sociopaths seek to use to their advantage.

If something feels wrong then you should take a step back and proceed with caution. Most sensible people will understand any reluctance you have, and be patient with it. A sociopath on the other hand tends to lack patience, which results in them rapidly breaking away from any social connection with no remorse and moving on.

Most sociopaths are very moral even when they not know what guilt is. Many are very protective of their mental illness because they know it often brings them grief in life when others find out about them -- especially the secretly sadistic ones.

Problem is that they're not protective of their mental illness at all. The fact that they lack the ability to feel guilt makes them incapable of recognizing they even have such an illness.

However, yes... when people start to figure them out, they do get scared. It's something I ignored early on in my relationship with my ex. I know there were a few lies that I allowed my ex to cover up when I still had some objectivity that should have steered me clear. But there were a couple of friendships she ended early on in our relationship. It was always the other person's fault that the friendship had broken down, and it wasn't enough to simply walk away. She had to belittle and demean them before she would let them go. While it came as a surprise in the early stages of our break-up when she did the same thing to me, in hindsight it's not really surprising at all. Back then she had me convinced that they really had wronged her. Now I understand how it works.

Hmmmm! Let's stop this thread. (There are going to be a lot of flamers!) I mean, How many people is this outlining? Plenty of women that like to crie and than pretend they are victims eventhough deep down they know that they started the situation! Men who constantly lie to get what they want, not caring if the woman or man is upset and or dreams are dashed or if the person is short changed. Oh yeah, im sure we have all met some narccistics, psychopaths!

Let's just be thankful that most of these fools past normal folk on by. They usually end up in a comfortable relationship with each other, thereby feeding off of each other's tendencies! If you meet a psychopath just let him or her back out into the stream and let them swim free!

Just remember to hurry and paddle upstream, those types nest and spawn off like crazy!

ALso, we should not talk about psychopaths or narccistics without talking about the fact. That for a lot of women men are not human and for a number of men out here women appear to be toys to them. Not the majority, but for alot of people that have those characteristics!

Profile of the Sociopath
This website summarizes some of the common features of descriptions of the behavior of sociopaths.



Glibness and Superficial Charm


Manipulative and Conning
They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible. They appear to be charming, yet are covertly hostile and domineering, seeing their victim as merely an instrument to be used. They may dominate and humiliate their victims.


Grandiose Sense of Self
Feels entitled to certain things as "their right."


Pathological Lying
Has no problem lying coolly and easily and it is almost impossible for them to be truthful on a consistent basis. Can create, and get caught up in, a complex belief about their own powers and abilities. Extremely convincing and even able to pass lie detector tests.


Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt
A deep seated rage, which is split off and repressed, is at their core. Does not see others around them as people, but only as targets and opportunities. Instead of friends, they have victims and accomplices who end up as victims. The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way.


Shallow Emotions
When they show what seems to be warmth, joy, love and compassion it is more feigned than experienced and serves an ulterior motive. Outraged by insignificant matters, yet remaining unmoved and cold by what would upset a normal person. Since they are not genuine, neither are their promises.


Incapacity for Love


Need for Stimulation
Living on the edge. Verbal outbursts and physical punishments are normal. Promiscuity and gambling are common.


Callousness/Lack of Empathy
Unable to empathize with the pain of their victims, having only contempt for others' feelings of distress and readily taking advantage of them.


Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature
Rage and abuse, alternating with small expressions of love and approval produce an addictive cycle for abuser and abused, as well as creating hopelessness in the victim. Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, entitled to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others.


Early Behavior Problems/Juvenile Delinquency
Usually has a history of behavioral and academic difficulties, yet "gets by" by conning others. Problems in making and keeping friends; aberrant behaviors such as cruelty to people or animals, stealing, etc.


Irresponsibility/Unreliability
Not concerned about wrecking others' lives and dreams. Oblivious or indifferent to the devastation they cause. Does not accept blame themselves, but blames others, even for acts they obviously committed.


Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity
Promiscuity, child sexual abuse, rape and sexual acting out of all sorts.


Lack of Realistic Life Plan/Parasitic Lifestyle
Tends to move around a lot or makes all encompassing promises for the future, poor work ethic but exploits others effectively.


Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility
Changes their image as needed to avoid prosecution. Changes life story readily.

I was once involved with a sociopath. I loved him very deeply. He died.

There's a great deal of hysteria out there these days about sociopathy, psychopathy and antisocial behavioral disorder.

My recommendation would be that if you are curious about these disorders maybe go find one that has a solid diagnosis, has been to some therapy and ask that person what it's actually like to have these conditions.

That might provide a more solid information base for people than being afraid of your neighbor or every twenty-fourth person on the bus.

My experience is that personality disorders and personality traits that mimic the disorders are the individual's response to stress. Most antisocials are not serial killers or even thieves, most borderlines are not that crazy actress who beat her kids with coat hangers, most histrionics are not Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton in Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf, most narcissists are not Bill Clinton. Most of them are you and me and only behave inappropriately when pushed beyond normal and acceptable coping mechanisms. Will it be a flavor throughout the entire personality? Of course, but only a flavor. When NOT stressed to breaking point the narcissist can of course respond with compassion as can the antisocial, and the borderline can hold his or her identity in place and the histrionic can speak quietly and wear a bra.

A poetic definition is that a sociopath is someone that can't quite believe anyone else is real.

They rarely go out of their way to harm others, they are NOT sadistic. But they never go out of their way to avoid harming someone.

They are incredibly good flatterers, charmers and syncophants.

If your brother the sociopath needs a kidney and you donated one, he would effusively thank you. Then, after you're home he will, while you're out getting pizza, get all household cash, grab all your jewelry, ask your neighbors to lend him some money, sell the new TV, rent a car . . . sorry, RV, and take off, leaving behind a thank-you note.

I haven't fallen in love with one, but spent a couple of months seeing one a few years back. It was a real eye opener.

I think that honestly the only way to tell is to establish what they want from you, don't give it to them and see how they react. Sociopaths I think will invariably will react by just completely dismissing you and walking away if they truely realise that they are not going to get what they want. You are there to serve a need that they have, no other reason. If you cannot provide that need they will quickly move on to seek gratification elsewhere. Of course if they think they can intimidate you into giving it to them, then this situation becomes dangerous. If they have any idea that they will get what they want then they will carefully weigh up whether it is worth the effort to keep trying to get it from you, or move on to the next person who seems a likely candidate.

The tricky part to this of course is working out what it is they want from you. It could be money, somewhere to live, or your connection to something or someone that they want. It could simply be just power over you that they want. If they are a narcissist then it will be to feed thier ego in some way.

Not all sociopaths and narcissists are killers, or even obviously violent. They are adept at mimicking real concern and caring emotion to manipulate you into getting what they want. Once they are sure they have power over you, you will start to see what they really want.

Yes unfortunately I have. They have literally no emotional empathy for others. A child crying is just an an annoyance to them, not a cy for help meaningthe child needs assistance. When they hurt your feelings and are especially emotionally cruel, they don't care at all, or have an inkling why you should be hurt, and if you somehow do get an apology, it is for their personal gain, as in to get you to shut up, not to make you fel better,

They go through life 'faking' emotions, they truly don't care or or have an understanding of how their actins harm people...and they don't want to. The sociopath will have sex to gratify themselves but they don't care really do it for pleasure,it is only for power. The sociopath I got involved with would rape me anally, without warning, just to hear me scream and when I would bleed profusely, sitting in the tub with blood running down the drain, he would laugh and say I needed to toughen up. He threatened me if I told anyone about it he would slit me from my anus to my mouth. He would also beat me to a pulp on a regular basis, it was a turn-on for him, then he would rape me...that was one of his biggest thrills,
He didn't give a damn what I felt, it was all about his feelings of power.

At work, he demanded his way at all times, he was the owner's son, so people let him get away with whatever he wanted. He took pride in working alongside his men, and outworking them every day.He made good money, but that wasn't the point. he was sadistic,

They sucker you in at first, the present themselves as well-mannered, adjusted, and hard working men. Then after a bit, you start seeing the traits come out little at a time.

It is not your fault if you get takn in by a sociopath, and it's hard as hell to get away one. But we live and learn.I hope to hgh heaven no one ever has to go through what I went through.

That was where I was actually lucky I suppose. Once my daughter was born, she became the focal point of my life. That didn't sit well with my ex. Fortunately the only control she had over me was mental/emotional. Physically she was no threat. So once she lost that control, she was more than happy to cast me aside. Not to say it was easy at first, because at the time I had no idea she was a sociopath and I thought I still loved her. But as time went on and I finally realized what had been going on all those years... well, it made things a lot easier.

It's weird too. You're left wondering, "How in the hell could I have been so easily duped?" Like I say, there were signs in the beginning... it's not that I didn't notice them. But they're just so fricking charming that they're able to convince you to ignore those signs. It's weird, but I still remember the first time I thought something was amiss. Do you know how I rationalized it? I actually told myself, "No relationship is perfect. If this is the worst I have to deal with, I can live with that." Looking back I can't believe my brain actually formulated that kind of ridiculous logic. I should have kicked my ass right there on the spot.

Posted: 11/7/2009 7:48:15 AM
can anyone give me some insight to their experiences??


Ok, you asked.

I have a tendency to forget that I was even involved with one, but I was, for over a year. We were going to get married, have kids. We had long term plans. We also had very big problems, and I finally convinced him to go to therapy with me. He is the only sociopath I've known to have a legitimate, professional diagnosis.

When that diagnosis came in I read until I was blue in the face and I continue to read the changes in ideas about this particular kind of mind, and then I compare that to the reality of living with one. I'm willing to believe that mine was a bit of an exception to the rule because he was lacking in some of the external behavioral symptoms, however, then as I continue to read the experts and they purport things like probably one out of ten of us is psychopathic and we just don't know because they don't get diagnosed I begin to realize that perhaps mine was NOT the exception to the rule but that the incarcerated psychopath is the exception to the rule, the unsuccessful psychopath.

I was involved with an exceptionally successful psychopath. I can feel it now, the universal shudder of the reader when encountering those words, the successful psychopath and herein lies the problem of non-psychopaths thinking they understand the condition. Doesn't successful psychopath sound like that person is continually getting one over on everyone else and simply not getting caught? Isn't that what causes that little chill on the inside when hearing those words?

Well, it isn't what those words mean. Would "successful paraplegic" mean someone who steals legs? Would a "successful schizophrenic" mean someone who drags other people into psychosis? Would a "successful dyslexic" rewrite the English language? Is a "successful cancer patient" contagious?

The narcissism of the public is palpable when it comes to discussing psychopaths. Everyone seems to think the end goal of the psychopath is YOU. That's projection. The rest of us are tribal, seeking support, recognition, ego food, validation, competition, community, and love, therefore we assume that the psychopath must be equally as focused on others as the rest of us. And that's where we utterly fail not only at taking care of ourselves in a population that is made up of 10 percent psychopaths, but we also utterly fail the psychopath. Not only is that cruel and inhumane, it's stupid and naïve.

So then what's a successful psychopath?

A successful psychopath is someone who manages to piece together a normal life, fulfilling relationships, a satisfying career and good physical health while still exhibiting the personality and yes, soul characteristics of psychopathy. Now again, I've only known one with a medical diagnosis but I've noticed an important ingredient in the successful psychopath: no dual diagnosis... no narcissism, substance addiction, bipolar disorder, no horrible past of child abuse, incarceration or deprivation through poverty and ill fortune.

If those things are not present a psychopath not only has a good chance of being successful but may actually have a distinct advantage over other people. They don't take responsibility for other people's feelings, which in my opinion is not only morally correct, it makes them incredibly uncomplicated. How many of us are impossible to read because other people can't tell if we're doing something for them or for ourselves? How much of what we do is sacrifice, compromise or self interested? Even WE don't know most of the time, or at least we don't know until suddenly we feel "wronged". THEN we figure out we were just being nice and actually expected the other person to respond in kind. Yeah well, psychopaths don't do that. You can pretty much rely on the idea that everything they want and do has an extremely wide vein of self interest involved.

They also don't collect on unspoken debts. If a psychopath was good to you, he or she was good to you, period. They don't run these tallies of "I did this nice thing and that nice thing and the other nice thing, now I expect you to be nice to me back." Nope, there was something for them in the moment or they wouldn't have done it. Having a conscience and empathy means you know how other people feel when something bad happens to them right? Wrong. It also means you know how they feel when something GOOD happens to them too. If they don't get one they won't get the other. So, if the psychopath is good to you it's not because he or she is racking up some list of positive experiences for you and someday you'll have to be nice back. Nope, it means being good to you was the right thing for them to do in that moment, they got their reward in the moment and they moved on. Do you have any idea how wonderful that is to live with? No stupid accounting for who is nicer. (And by the way, he was nicer. I WAS tallying, maddening as it is.)

Another quality of the successful psychopath is an unnerving quietude. When one's mind is not continually tallying and strategizing how to survive among others that mind has a tendency to be quiet. The psychopath I was involved with had an amazing confidence in his own survival, greater than any other person I've ever met. Couple that with a high IQ and therefore an ability to understand his own limits, the limitations of others and a mathematical understanding of cause and effect, action and consequence, he was almost never in trouble. He didn't get stuck places from over assuming his ability or trusting in other people. In fact, he rarely depended on other people to contribute to his survival. Did he work for someone else? Yes, but he didn't until he was over thirty. He didn't want to be part of a large organization he was unable to understand, predict and control. He only become ok with it because he had honed his rudimentary survival skills for building shelter, gathering food and keeping the companionship of a woman and providing for his young. If that vague and amorphous thing called a corporation were to loom up and surprise him with nuances he couldn't understand, predict or control, he would still be able to provide for himself, for me and for the kids we planned to have.

So he didn't get up and go to work everyday with a mind full of chatter of how he was going to succeed in this day. He wasn't paranoid that the big organization was going to get him and he wasn't c0cky in believing he had it all under control. He simply did his job. And he did it very quietly. He didn't have to be concerned with other people's peoplehood. He took care of his own peoplehood and just figured the rest of us were too.

We're not and he learned over time that most people are NOT responsible for themselves, their feelings and their behavior, but it was still his primal response to life. Facts are fact, just because you're breathing, or you are you, or you are suffering or even joyful does not mean the facts have changed. He would sit with me for an amazing period of time waiting for me to take responsibility for myself and the situations I got myself into through my own error, stupidity or misguided belief that other people are there to take care of me, support me, and protect me. He would explain over and over what the facts were until I stopped railing against the injustice of it all or until I flounced out frustrated and incensed.

I think the word is unflappable.

For me, it didn't get much better than him. His self-interest made him hot, reliable, consistent, uncomplicated and somehow or other in a sexist world, undeniably male. A bleeding heart male is tiresome, needy and often completely impossible to grok for a woman like me who really wants to know her partner is doing this that or the other thing because he actually wants to. The psychopath is doing it because he wants to and there won't be a price tag later.

He was independent and capable -- not necessarily hot but extremely useful and one of the reasons we could plan for me to stay at home and raise our kids and devote all my time and energy to serving him. He would do everything else -- build the house, maintain the houses, maintain the automobiles, bring in the money and because he was so self reliant there was never a whole lot of drama around friends, helpmeets, coworkers or employers. There simply weren't any of them around. Something needed doing, he did it. He didn't have to have a barn raising replete with social drama and favors tendered. He didn't have to hire people and then manage them, or leave that to me the way most husbands do.

Quiet and emotionally self-sufficient -- he was just very low drama, also very dominant if you ask me. A demonstrative man can get caught with his shorts down, A LOT. Anger allows other people to control you, if not during the episode, after it. Sadness and grief weaken the will to live. Anticipation leads to disappointment. Eagerness invites manipulation. He just didn't play his cards. He held them tightly to his chest and one was never quite sure how he felt and the chances were he would get over how he felt long before anyone was either discerning enough to realize they DIDN'T know how he felt, or if they were, courageous enough to ask.

And the last: sadistic. His sadism WAS one of the ways he did connect with people. Of course, finding masochists who connect back was a bit of a challenge since there aren't so many of us out there. And that's a whole other topic that would take too long to get into. I never do it well, anyway.

So, there's yet another treatise on the value of a psychopathic sadistic dominant male as a mate. Why everyone keeps writing them off as wimpy serial killers I'll never know. Fussy little OCD guys with a plan need a lot to get their d!cks hard. A good rugged psychopath can't get his d!ck to go down but he also won't barter his soul or his independence for a port to slip it into. For me, it doesn't get much better than that.

Have you ever fallen in love with a sociopath??

Psychopath acts on opportunity / impulse

Sociopath Plans in advance and it isn't about 'what' they do - it is about "fooling", "getting away with", ie: Proving to themselves (and us) that 'they' are Smarter / In Control. **Historically there have been 'sociopaths' who have planned upwards of 5 - 10 years the 'crime' they believe they can 'get away with'.!!

Both have victims. For a sociopath, those victims may be Business Partners, Spousal/Partners, Children, Animals .. etc. - Most view others as Inferior, less intelligent and this (they perceive) as a Weakness - not to be protected, to be either punished or exploited.

A "sociopath" gets their sense of "personal power" by overpowering others - physically, mentally, emotionally or otherwise.

They are generally incapable of "feeling" normal emotion, often are like chameleons - they mimic what they see others 'do' that exhibits the desired emotion. I 'knew' one many years ago who was able to make himself Cry on demand!! (Laughing to himself because 'you' bought his ACT!!)

Many do start with abusing small animals. Of course "All" of those who have been (properly) diagnosed as "sociopaths" have not been proven to have abused animals in their past and Most sociopaths wouldn't admit to a Past Crime that "you missed" ..

It is a "Game" to a sociopath, no more no less. A very cruel Inhuman Game.

I "fell for" one about 15 years ago. For a while I blamed myself for not "seeing" him for who he is. Since then I have spoken with Trained Professionals (Psychologists, Psychiatrists, RCMP Investigators .. etc) .. I feel a whole lot better Knowing that Most (if not all) of them have difficulty discerning a sociopath.

**Many (proven) Sociopaths are capable of fooling lie detectors.

so .. don't feel bad if you do or have 'fallen' for one such being .. but - When you Know - get the Hell outta there!

That is another syptom of the sociopath, someone nailed it. When they do something to you, rather it is work related or even in your own home. They think you should toughen up! The fact that you are upset about them manipulating you, lieing to you, or using you for their own personal gain or amusement. Is your problem not theirs!

A lot of sociopaths use hot and cold behaviour, very charming and cold at the same time. They continue to alternate the 2 while dealing with people! You dont know if they are going to be kind or cold from minute to minute.

I met a sociopath, that I did not know at first,he was a very powerfuly persuasive,his profile was he was a succesful Landscaper business man. I checked his business address,it is ligit. My curiosity was piqued ,for he was always telling me to drive to his place .because he is busy or if I don't want to drive,he will sent a bus ticket,So I said I'll buy my own round trip ticket. and I bought a nice sexy dress from Macy to wear with a high heel shoes ,because when he talk to me he sound like a very upscale man. He told me to catch the time frame bus so I did not have time to dress up, Iwore old men'sT ,overall,Nike and a baseball cap. What I saw is a dirty old fat man, I tried to be polite and courteous,that I can not stay for long blah blah. Instead going to restaurant our plan in the first place,but he decided to cook a good meal in his house. "he assured me don't be afraid I am well known in this town I won't do things to hurt you". OMG!! his house is poor and he only have a few pots of flower plants in the front of his house with a big sign of his name. And I sensed a bad vibration kinda evil.....
I never prayed so hard in my life and plan to escape, for the fear of my life/that getting rape is better than died and no one knows, perhaps my guardian angel help me ,I told him I need to go to the bathroom and I grab my bag and run as fast as I can to the bus stop there are some people there that I hide behind them when he was looking for me. So ladies,be very careful, don't fall for any man even they have evidence of what the said who they are ,it might be fake and their intention is not good so check them carefully.... And don't tell them some information about you.... PS he can lashed in anger to pursuave me and sweet talk me that I cave in.

^^^^^^Okay, I get that he was a liar! The whole thing about you feeling an evil presence. Wooooooow! Just Wooow!

I mean Vanilli, there are a lot of poor people with lieing problems, but I think we are talking more about people that are emotionally and mentally abusive with no remorse or no reason except to feel pleasure or because they justify their superiority complex! At any rate, it was an entertaining story!

Yes, I have. Three years of hell. I'd never dealt with anyone like that and was totally ill equipped. By the time he started showing his true colors, it was too late for me to just leave.

I honestly wish I'd never met him.

Of course wazhiz, don't you feel an evil present if a man grabed you hurting you sexualy like he is angry ??? pulling your hair shoving his toungh to your mouth,squishing your breast that it hurt and pulling your clothes and hurting you private . If a man can hurt a woman sexually,he is capable to murder her........ Perhaps NJiser is evil herself if she find this intertaining....

They have no capacity for empathy. Therefore, no conscience, remorse (unless they are sorry for themselves). Will do anything to get their agenda fulfilled without considering consequence to others. Lie without batting an eye and are able to "rationalize" all their behaviors without the least regret.
